it means you pressed the power button too late. To take screenshot on Fire HDX or Kindle FGire HDX, you need press and hold both buttons (power and volume down) simultaneously. In practice, you can press the power button slightly (less than 1 second) earlier.

I get the image I’m capturing as a “pop up” and then in shrinks and vanishes. I get the shutter click, too but it’s not saving to my photos. I’ve tried several times with the same results. I have the 8″ HD 2016 kindle. Thanks.

Ok so I found the images but they only show up in my prime photos and not my camera roll which is annoying because it’s harder to get to. You’d think whatever I took ON my kindle would save to the camera roll. 🤔

The screenshot is always saved in the folder of pictures/screenshot in the phone storage. It’s up to individual app to “see” it. You need a Gallery app which can show all photos and videos on the tablet. Prime photos only show pictures after it’s synced with cloud. It’s not designed as local gallery app.

Where will I find screen shots taken on the kids profile? I’ve looked in my photos from my adult profile hoping there would be a tab or menu to take me to them but couldn’t see anything. It’s an old kindle fire HD 3rd generation. Thank you.
